Fall Doheny Trial Defense Depicts Patriotism In Naval Lease Case
On day two of the Fall and Doheny conspiracy trial in Washington, defense counsel Frank J. Hogan and government attorney Owen Roberts presented stark contrasts in personality and argument. Hogan argued Doheny acted patriotically to secure Pearl Harbor storage for the Navy, while Fall acted in the public interest with consent from Navy officials. The defense disputed secrecy claims and asserted that the $100,000 loan funded ranch property, not illicit gains, and that the storage contract was legally approved after considering naval wartime needs.

Navy Planes Start Dash Toward Panama
NORFOLK VA Nov 28 AP The navy all metal seaplanes PN-10 No 1 and PN-19 No 2 began a 2170 mile non stop flight from Hampton Roads toward Colon Panama. They lifted off within minutes of each other at 418 and 428 p m and headed east to Cape Henry then down the south Atlantic coast. Naval radio said they were 35 miles off Cape Hatteras at 620 p m traveling about 450 miles per hour after several takeoff attempts due to heavy loads. Each carried about 1500 gallons of gasoline and food for thirty hours, expected to finish in 24 or 25 hours unless weather or other delays arise. Commander Albert Read and Commander Bartlett lead the mission as they press toward a long distance seaplane record. Delay reports noted one guard ship left its post to aid an appendicitis case in Charleston. The planes were then reported off Brunswick Georgia later that night.
